‘Thank You For Everything’: Arshdeep Singh’s Heartfelt ‘Thank You’ Post For Rahul Dravid Goes Viral

India pacer Arshdeep Singh’s heartfelt tribute to outgoing India head coach Rahul Dravid has gained widespread attention on social media. His significant contribution helped India secure victory over South Africa in the T20 World Cup final on Saturday, June 29 in Barbados. Arshdeep shared a photograph showing him with the 2018 U-19 World Cup trophy alongside then-coach Dravid on the left, marking a full circle moment in their journey together.

Under Prithvi Shaw’s captaincy and Dravid’s guidance, India had previously clinched the 2018 U-19 World Cup by defeating Australia in the final. Arshdeep played a crucial role in that tournament, taking three wickets across two matches with an impressive economy rate of two.

“2018➡️2024. Thank you for everything coach saab🙏🏼❤️,” Arshdeep captioned his post.

During the T20 World Cup finals, Arshdeep delivered an outstanding performance, claiming two key wickets including a well-set Quinton de Kock. He followed up with a remarkable 19th over, conceding only four runs, which was crucial after India’s spinners leaked 106 runs in their nine overs.

Arshdeep’s childhood coach Jaswant Rai credited Dravid for helping Arshdeep secure a County Championship deal with Kent. Rai highlighted how Arshdeep’s stint in Kent enhanced his bowling skills, emphasizing variations over length.

Arshdeep emerged as one of the top performers in the T20 World Cup, finishing as the joint-highest wicket-taker alongside Afghanistan’s Rahmanullah Gurbaz with 17 scalps and an economy rate of 7.16. He is set to feature next when India faces Sri Lanka in a limited-overs series starting from July 27.
